From Amazon.com

After the spectacular debut of Interview with the Vampire in 1976, Anne Rice put aside her vampires to explore other literary interests--Italian castrati in Cry to Heaven and the Free People of Color in The Feast of All Saints. But Lestat, the mischievous creator of Louis in Interview, finally emerged to tell his own story in the 1985 sequel, The Vampire Lestat.

As with the first book in the series, the novel begins with a frame narrative. After over a half century underground, Lestat awakens in the 1980s to the cacophony of electronic sounds and images that characterizes the MTV generation. Particularly, he is captivated by a fledgling rock band named Satan's Night Out. Determined both to achieve international fame and end the centuries of self-imposed vampire silence, Lestat takes command of the band (now renamed "The Vampire Lestat") and pens his own autobiography. The remainder of the novel purports to be that autobiography: the vampire traces his mortal youth as the son of a marquis in pre-Revolutionary France, his initiation into vampirism at the hands of Magnus, and his quest for the ultimate origins of his undead species.

While very different from the first novel in the Vampire Chronicles, The Vampire Lestat has proved to be the foundation for a broader range of narratives than is possible from Louis's brooding, passive perspective. The character of Lestat is one of Rice's most complex and popular literary alter egos, and his Faustian strivings have a mythopoeic resonance that links the novel to a grand tradition of spiritual and supernatural fiction. --Patrick O'Kelley --Ce texte provient de la Hardcover édition.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Odd ones out, Janv. 19 2007
Par Shawn McCarthy (Winnipeg, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Vampire Lestat (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm at odds with most people on this one, but after reading the majority of the Vampires, Witches & Sleeping Beauty sets, I still find Lestat and Queen of the Damned much less enjoyable reads.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Second best Anne Rice book, Mai 24 2006
This review is from: The Vampire Lestat (Mass Market Paperback)
It is, according to me the second best book Anne Rice wrote. The best one being Interview with the Vampire. It can't be qualified as an horror book, merely a fantasy book. You can't possibly be afraid of those character, you can love them, hate them or pity them but never fear them. It is a good second book, but all the other books in this serie past Queen of the Damned isn't even worth reading. I read them and most admit that the three first one in the chronicle of the vampires are the bests. I would recommend it if you liked Interview, but I'd recommend that someone that never read Anne Rice's book start with Interview instead of this book.

4.0étoiles sur 5 This is the best book!, Jui 14 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: The Vampire Lestat (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved this book, it was just as good as Interview with the Vampire but I did read them in the wrong order.

So when I read interview with the vampire I was very defensive over Lestat because in this book he explains why he couldn't teach Louis everything because his own maker (Magnus)died before he taught Lestat anything about being a vampire so he went looking for answers and finally found a vampire called Marius (the oldest vampire in the world and Armands maker who Armand fought to be dead.) who answered some of Lestats un-answered questions. (just like when Louis and Claudia went looking for anwsers and found Armand.)

Also we find out why he hated his father so much and what his father meant in interview with the vampire when he said 'sorry, please forgive me' before he died.

The book is writen from Lestats point of view and is kind of like his biography.

My favourate part must be the ending when Louis comes back to Lestat after reading Lestats book and understanding Lestat was like he was.

This was the best book in the "vampire" series. It was well thought out and well written. It's slow at parts, but quickly picks up. It's very good.
